eBay Horror Story. I purchased a Big TOMY Thomas The Tank from online shopping site eBay. This train playset also included a difficult to find rare box. Sadly the seller only wrapped a single layer of Christmas wrapping as shipping protection and the rare box was damaged in transit. It seems I was to blame because I only paid a cheap price for the toy, did not disclose I was a Thomas collector and somehow Australia Post were not gentle with the parcel. Christmas wrapping is not designed as protective postal wrapping! Basically the seller could not see that their lack of box protection was to blame. The seller seemed to miss the very important rule of first contact with a buyer. Normally a purchase like this would be sent in it's own outer cardboard box to protect the original toy box. Sadly I have found eBay to be very hit and miss. In the video we will take a look at my first purchase of a Thunderbirds toy which has some great lessons in how to impress a buyer. One big mistake the TOMY Thomas seller did was attack me through messages after the sale. That's not nice to do. There is zero chance I will ever return to this eBay seller's shop. Who knows they may learn a vital lesson here that will save their eBay business. Because if they go on in a way like I was treated they will not stay in business on eBay. The video showing the unboxing of this amazing TOMY Thomas needs the sellers info blurred out so it can be re-uploaded. The seller is worried my video was going to destroy their eBay business. If they continue on in the way they spoke to me they will destroy it themselves. This video covers a few important aspects to selling and the relationship between the buyer and seller. Big companies like Apple know how to impress from the first contact with their product. That's a perfect example of how to really impress your buyer. I also look at how eBay uses online ad's to lure you back to their site to buy more. But there are some eBay sellers who use trap pictures that seem like amazing deals until you read the details of the sale. But the way eBay ad's take you to a buy page is a tad sinister. You could easily get lured in buying something that's not as impressive as the picture related to the sale. It also takes advantage of people who can't understand the conditions of the sale. The selling picture should be EXACTLY whats on offer, not a stock or sample picture of multiple items. Another Youtuber I know did a video showing the hit and miss effect on eBay. It's well worth a look to see how different sellers respect the buyers. eBay Shopping! by Racegrooves https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hclxdD0gWVY Web Links : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EBay
